A word of advice for those who have heard that carob powder is a good cocoa replacement: maybe in small quantities, but if you're really truly a chocolate lover like me, it just isn't gonna cut it. I used carob powder to make brownies yesterday (I had some from when I first found out about my allergies and found out it was a good chocolate replacement, possibly healthier, and I had gone on an "all alternatives" buying craze) and while I know have a brownie-like cake thingy that tastes kinda fruity, I do not have brownies... Next grocery run, cocoa is being bought...
Thought you'd wanna know.

Ha ha. You’re right. It’s not quite the same, but there are some tasty ready-made carob products out there now.
I'm not saying I'll never make it again, but not if I'm craving chocolate and need a fix... Hahaa, I just reread that and I sound like a drug addict.
